    African football has a tendancy to be a bit random like this......hmmm maybe its just the sceptic in me but I wonder if there are any betting iregularities etc.

    I stopped watching at 4 nil.

    About 100 people at the game today in the same stadium which was packed last night. Such a shame.

    Sparse crowd and even more goalkeeping nightmares today.

    Russel for Malawi looks a tidy player.

    The 2 games so far have had shocking results. Mali scoring 4 in 10 minutes and Malawi beating Algeria 3-0.

    *Puts a quid on Algeria*

    Should get them here. A lot of the games require sopcast. I use it and it's safe to download. Here it is if you need it.

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    Algeria are an awful side. At least the fans won't have too much trouble getting away from the ground. All 4 of them.

    Angola is a horrendously expensive country to visit and it World Cup year. The ordinary support are saving their money for that. I was talking to a taxi driver(insert chuckle here) in Manchester about this and he said that he was going to SA and was going to give Angola a miss as he couldn't afford both.

    His brothers were back in Algeria and he said they could only afford to go for the latter stages if they made it through.

    If they had made the knock out phases the Algerian disapora would have descended(As they done for all other recent ACNs).
    Tifo poles, sausage rolls and a few goals.

    16 side tournament held in 4 stadia makes you kind of think "what if".

    There was an interesting anecdote about the Egyptian government battling the same problem last time out by bussing in legions of the army dressed in coloured dungarees, whose job was to cheer for whichever side they'd been told to that day!
